DA...there is no shortage of the influence we have had on this industry..
does anybody know if there was any big animation companies before scarefactory ?
I remember back when Dave Faulkman was contracted to operate a haunt for clear channel here in Columbus in maybe 94 or 5
He came thru and was blown away...and he was da biggest man in the concert scene i know...
...i was honored he even knew my name...
he sold promowest to Jules Belkin and he rolled all his profits into scarefactory and started selling to haunts the next year or so...
we have been friends ever since
at least to my knowledge the stuff we were doing back then hadn't been done before

Jules Belkin of Belkin Productions in Cleveland, OH.. His company was the 2nd largest concert promoter in the country before the evil Clear Channel bought everyone out

wow. amazed. shocked

Im not normally the one to talk about other haunts but just wow. The Haunted Hoochie was by far the BEST haunted attraction I have ever seen. From the moment you get yanked in to the moment you get out it is nothing but a pure amazing experience!
Thank you guys for putting on such a great show. (:

Wow...what an experience Friday Night!
This was my 2nd time through the Hoochie...last time was MHC 3 years ago.
I have to say it was intense then...but this time seemed amped up even more.
The actors were way more aggressive and the touches were not taps like last time...full on grabs and I even got my ass smacked in one of the outside scenes heading back inside and the guy yelled "DAMN, I LOOOOOOVE YOU!!!"
One of the most shocking things was getting sprayed with RED BLOOD from the guy in the chair...all over the white sleeve of my shirt. It got all over a friends face and hands. I expected it to be water for effect, and when we stepped into the next lighted portion...it was RED...crazy.
Love the Hooch!!!

[VSneader2]

Tim as I said last year, your haunt as ruined other haunts for me. I always compare them to yours and they just don't stand a chance. You have the best haunt around, I am just sad I don't think I will get to experience it this year due to work.

[wickedhauntII]

thank you

Just found this thread and spent the whole night reading it ALL.Thank you for sharing so much of the hoochie and yourself in these posts.

the year was 1990 and we were in the concert business as was Dave Faukman..
thats right i am about to show off preScarefactory and all the spin offs that followed

anyways it was a guillotine were the head once again heckled the crowd before and after the decapitation
the eyes and mouth both moved with air and the valves were hand controlled so the guy running the mic could say anything he wanted and keep the mouth in time...
just a steal frame head with actuators a mask and Velcro... the guillotine was enormous and made just the same way we do it today..all 100 year old oak and a stainless blade..
the head once cut off hung from 550 cord and swung towards the crowd..
everyone thought it was great. now its like a trophy in my office

[CODE][/CODE]

I SO KNOW WHERE YOUR COMING FROM ON THIS ONE!!!

I know I haven't posted on here much over the past few years, but a few years ago I did a haunt room that really struck a cord with everybody involved! There were very few things I could keep as mementos but the best one of all was this saw blade we made. It was on a pneumatic air ram that came towards the patrons while they were seated. The blade only moved about 6-8 inches or so, and then the lights went out!!!! OH that was awesome! I kept this piece for when we finally got moved into our new place. As soon as the walls were painted in my shop the saw blade went up!!! I absolutely love it! Yah, people that walk in wonder what the hell...........but its all good!!!!!!!!! lol

[badass]

tater brother...man oh man...this certified work a holic has retired..well semi retired anyways..
i am back home for a reality show party then tomorrow and i am off again ...taking advantage of a new perspective on life...

i created this monster and it is a wild one.....and now i am setting her free....

vsneader ...ruining you for all other haunts and the best haunt around is what we strive for every single day around here..thank you very very much sir

wicked haunt II......I pour myself out to help fill others up..... when i lost my son it was unbearably hard...but has helped me see fire inspections, a city trying to legislate me outta business, or any other hardship as
small potatoes....soo i have followed my dream relentlessly and without regret...and it has taught me...so i teach you that thinking that anything stands in your way is only a way of thinking

Darkblood....thank you for loving the Hooch...and should have got your swag by now ? let me know


Dreadland.....man thank you soo much for the compliment about the pics....old pics are a grab bag ..but for the last 5 years i take all pictures myself...it has been part of my retirement plan...while taking pictures i am
observing the haunt and my crew operating it from an outsiders perspective.........and as i have been doing this i have been amazed at the performance and leadership skills they posses

Kelly Anderson.....thank you for relating to the hooch story...it is nice to keep a few mementos from meager beginnings....reminds me of our commitment to doing things that had never been done before... and
making lemonade outta lemons is a fundamental part of success...so hang up what makes u feel good and reminds u of who u are and where you are going....and put the rest into semi trailers and
plan for a retirement auction...i am up to 18 semi trailers not including the actual hoochie


hope i didn't miss anyone this time around...

i love this industry and everyone in it......even the vendor's who have ripped me off............teach me

thanks again for taking time to read my ramblings

[Tater]

Hahah Tim it seems like your like me, can never fully just get away...another party..Ill be on standby just incase. Hope your enjoying your getaway
